Trivia: Which Blondie hit was originally called “the disco song”?
The Tide is High
Rapture
Heart of Glass
One Way or Another
The correct answer is Heart of Glass
So why is this answer correct? : “Heart of Glass” was a hit for Blondie in 1979, but it was dreamt up many years earlier. The track, initially called “Once I Had a Love,” was recorded as a demo in 1975. It featured a slow, basic disco beat, so the band referred to it as “the disco song.” Inspired by Donna Summer’s more upbeat sound, Blondie reworked the track into the disco-infused “Heart of Glass” and it became their first big hit in the U.S.
